FORUM RULES

[Lyz]

Welcome to the community. Please follow these simple rules:
Remember, you agreed to these rules when you clicked "I AGREE" in the Terms of Service. You must consent to our policy, or discontinue visiting this webforum.

Kindness & Compliments

Comments

1. Remember that it is never appropriate to negatively comment on somebody's weight. We are about support and success.
   
2. Namecalling members will be deleted and banned without warning.
   

Photographs

I would like to take the time now, to warn all users that due to the nature of this website, partial nudity is sometimes unaviodable. Please take caution when viewing if you are underage, or easily offended.


Nudity

1. Users may not post full nudity pictures. They will be removed.
   
2. As this is about weightloss, bra/boxer shots are OK. When posting pictures you're unsure of, please include the words [TRIGGER] in your post title. This is our automatic warning system for younger users.
   
3. I would like to remind users to be cautious when posting images of themselves. Remember that when online, you really don't know who you're talking to. If you're comfortable with possibly your neighbor or parents seeing these images, then feel free to post. I strongly warn you against anything that could bring you shame, though.
   
4. Users who post pornographic images will be removed and banned without warning.
   

Real, Fake, and the rest

1. Please post only real photo's.
   
2. If you are found faking images, they will be deleted, and you are subject to possible banning.
   
3. If you are under the age of 16 (or heaven forbid, 13) please, please have parental consent before using this website. We strive for healthy weightloss, but your parents should know and support your goals.
   

Language & Conduct


Foul Language & Abbreviations

1. Foul language is not against our rules, simply because the nature of the Internet itself entails foul language.
   
2. Cursing in form of hatred, or malice is unacceptable. If you wish to insult someone, take it off Boa.
   
3. If you are posting a rant, rave, etc. and you're going to curse a lot, please [TRIGGER] the forum title. Again, this is our warning system for younger or more sensitive members.
   

Eating Disorders & Tips

I warn once again, due to the nature of this website, eating disorders may be apparent or existant. The only reason we acknowledge them is to encourage recovery.


Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, ED-NOS

1. As the abbreviations "Ana" or "Mia" are offensive terms, they are never tolerated. Ever.
   
2. This website acknowledges Eating Disorders and encourages recovery, but we are by no means "Pro-Anorexia/Bulimia."
   
3. Do not post eating-disorder related tips here. Due to the Terms of Service of the Forum provider, tips involving starvation or self mutilation are not tolerated. Any sort of similiar behaviour will have your account removed, reported, and banned. Don't mess with me.
   

My own addition when talking about Eating Disorders: I reccomend you do it with a lot of grace and understanding. It's not funny, it's not media, and it's not cute. If you're suffering, you're encouraged to get help. If you're looking for tips on how to become Anorexic, don't eat for 14 days, then go talk about it. Don't use the phrases flippantly, and don't look down upon those suffering. It's more real than you think.
